look, barack obama beat mitt romney on foreign policy easily. this is not a guy who walks around in the way that democrats used to for all those years looking over his shoulder at this republican party that america trusts on national security. those days are gone. so i don't think he has the same fears that democrats did in the past. >> let's be frank. the public is very wary on the two wars we've waged. they want them to end. i think that works obviously towards hagel's favor. jo jon warner saved us from ollie north. weekly standard editor bill cross to kristol has been leading the charge against hagel. why is he doing this and why do people listen to his views on foreign policy in i think we know the answer. he's a charmer, he's brilliant, a great networker. anyway, let's watch him. >> whatever else you can say about this war, let me make one point, george bush is not fighting this like vietnam. we don't need to -- >> saddam may be. >> but it's not going to happen. >> let me take a call -- >> this is going to be a two-month war not an eight-ye

a lot of democrats would love it if president obama were a little more partisan than he is. but he is not. he is not that guy, which today is driving republicans crazy over this latest pick of chuck hagel. we will have more on that in a moment. but the question is should it drive democrats crazy that a democratic president is again, for the third time in 15 years picking a republican specifically for this one job, that is running the pentagon. should that drive democrats crazy that democrats do that all the time in terms of putting a republican in charge of the military, but a republican has never done that for a democrat? should that make democrats nuts? that's ahead.
